2003 Daihatsu Copen
CONSIGNMENT: 2003 DAIHATSU COPEN
We are massive fans of pint sized fun here at Go!
Garage. So when a chance came up to foster this rare little Aussie delivered Daihatsu Copen at our dealership, we said yes before the owner finished his request!
You don't need 600hp and a bajillion dollars to have fun. All you need is simplicity, and the Copen delivers in spades. A manual gearbox, a turbocharged engine, and a small little open air chassis that'll fit into your living room. This is what the Copen drops into your lap and challenges you not to smile and laugh behind the wheel.
The 660cc turbocharged engine doesn't sound like much, but in a car this small, it's an absolute riot. You wring it out through a proper five-speed manual, feel the boost come in, and suddenly you're grinning like an idiot. It weighs about as much as a sandwich, so it darts around corners like an eager puppy. And the best bit? It's got a retractable hardtop—press a button, and within seconds, you're in a convertible.
Magic. That woosh from the turbo will have you giggling like a toddler.
